About Manicure Roulette
Manicure Roulette® is the original nail design card game, first launched in 2022.
It was created to help nail techs and nail artists solve one simple but common problem - deciding what nails to create.
Instead of scrolling endlessly for inspiration or struggling through indecisive consultations, Manicure Roulette uses a set of card decks to guide the design process.
Each deck controls a different part of the manicure, allowing you to combine cards together to generate unique nail designs every time.
There are no strict rules, meaning you can use the cards however you like - whether you're creating nail sets for clients, practising designs, or planning content.
Today, Manicure Roulette is used by thousands of nail creatives worldwide as a simple tool to spark ideas and make the design process more fun.
How Does Manicure Roulette Work?
Manicure Roulette helps you decide what nails to create by guiding the consultation process.
Instead of scrolling endlessly for inspiration or struggling through indecisive consultations, the cards narrow down the options and spark new ideas.
Shuffle the cards, draw your combination and let the results inspire the manicure.
You can follow the cards exactly, redraw options you don’t like, or simply use them as inspiration - the cards are there to guide creativity, not control it.
What's Included?
Each Manicure Roulette®: The Original Game contains everything needed to start creating manicure combinations straight away.
Inside the box you’ll find:
• 99 premium satin-laminated cards - organised into 5 individual decks
• Manicure Roulette Game Handbook
• Cheat Sheet Card with 9 ways to play
• Luxury textured keepsake storage box
All cards are designed, printed and finished to order in-house by us in Sheffield, England.
The Art Theme Deck | 28 Cards
The Art Theme deck decides the overall creative direction of the manicure if your client is opting for nail art and is struggling to decide.
This deck includes a wide range of classic nail art styles nail techs (and clients) already know and love.
Examples include French manicure, florals, flames, leopard print, marble, tie-dye, polka dots, stripes, love, 70's style + many more.
Use this deck to quickly choose the style or theme of the nail art.
The Colour Palette Deck | 21 Cards
The Colour Palette deck selects the colour scheme for the manicure. Each card features a palette or colour combination that can be used for plain sets or alongside nail art themes.
Examples include Flamingo Punch, Monochrome, Nudes, Greens, Blues, Purples, Mustard Mayhem + many more.
Use one palette or combine multiple cards to create something completely unique.
The Nail Shape Deck | 21 Cards
The Nail Shape deck decides the length and shape of the nails. It's useful when clients are undecided between shapes or lengths, or fancy something completely new.
This deck includes all the standard nail shapes like Almond, Stiletto, Square, Squoval, Round, Ballerina and Oval.
Each shape comes in Short, Long and Extra-Long variations to guide the structure of the manicure.
The Art Digits Deck | 23 Cards
The Art Digits deck decides which nails will feature nail art, alternate designs or colour. Each card features 10 nails, left and right hands, with a star placement guide showing where to add your nail art or alternative colour.
Examples include all nails, ring fingers, thumbs, odds and evens, alternating nails + more.
The Finish Deck | 6 Cards
The Finish deck selects the final finish of the manicure when your client can't decide or want to try something new.
The six finishes included are shiny, matte, shimmer, shiny + matte, pearlescent and embossed
Use this deck to add the final touch to the nail look.
How To Use The Cards
There are no strict rules when using Manicure Roulette. You can use as many or as few decks as you like, depending on the manicure you want to create.
Popular ways nail techs use the cards:
Shuffle & Draw - Shuffle the decks and draw cards at random to generate a manicure combination.
Curated Draw - Allow your client to remove any cards they wouldn’t be happy with, then shuffle and draw.
Client Selection - Lay the cards out and let your client choose the elements they like.
Inspiration Mode - Use the cards as look cards or creative prompts when planning designs or content.
Follow the cards exactly - or adapt them however you like.
Do cards inside change with the sleeve style and box options?
No - the cards always stay the same. The outer and inner packaging change depending on the sleeve choice, and the box colour changes depending on the box choice.
Who It’s For?
Manicure Roulette is designed for professional nail technicians and nail artists.
It’s especially useful for:
• independent nail techs
• salon-based nail technicians
• nail artists offering custom nail art
• nail training academies
• nail educators and content creators in the nail industry
Many nail professionals use the cards during client consultations to quickly narrow down design choices, generate new ideas and make the decision process faster and more interactive
Card Quality & Packaging
All Manicure Roulette cards are:
• A7 size
• printed on premium silk card
• laminated on both sides with satin-matte laminate
This creates a smooth, durable finish that makes the cards easy to shuffle, more resistant to light wear and water resistent.
Each game is presented in a textured keepsake box designed to protect the cards and allow space for future Expansion Packs.
Common Questions
Do I need to be good at nail art to use Manicure Roulette?
Not at all. The cards simply guide the design process. Designs can be as simple or as detailed as you like.
What if my clients don’t want to use the cards?
Many nail techs use the cards behind the scenes on social media to generate ideas or narrow down options before showing their client a design. Clients can also select specific cards they'd be happy with before picking. There will always be a time in a clients life when they say "oh I don't know you decide" - that's when you pull out Manicure Roulette!
Do I have to use all the decks?
No. You can use as many or as few decks as you like.
What if I draw a card I don’t like?
Simply draw another or remove that card from the deck.
Can I use this with my existing nail products?
Yes - the cards simply guide the design. They work alongside any system or products you already use.
Card Care
To keep your cards looking their best:
• avoid acetone or strong solvents
• handle cards with clean or gloved hands
• store them safely inside the box when not in use
Cards can be gently cleaned with a lightly damp cloth or isopropyl alcohol away from the edges to prevent lifting of the laminate.
If a permanent collection card becomes lost or damaged, we offer a Card Replacement Service on our website.
